Disclaimers - I don't own it, or else
I would of said I owned it.
Ok, now that we've cleared
that up, let's get cracka-lackin (I love that phrase!)
Story Synopsis - At the end of the war, Char Anzable
and his Neo-Zeon were defeated by
Amuro Ray, Bright Noa, Shiro Amada,
and the Londo Bell Forces. But the
conquenses on both sides were numerous.
Especailly for the legendary 08th Moble
Suit Team, from the One Year War, and now
the Neo Zeon War. What will happen after
the war has finally ended?
(Set during Moble Suit Gundam - Char's Counterattack)
Once again, I'm sorry for not updating sooner, but I'm one busy person.
But I have come up with an interesting concept for this chapter and
the epilouge, which is coming soon. I humbly thank you for all the reviews.
Oh, I really should tell you about the surprises I have in this, but nahhhh,
You should see for yourself. (Well I'll hint, some f/f but nothing graphic, you'll
see between who.) Now without futher adue, here's chapter 6.

CHAPTER 6 - 5 STEPS FROM ETERNITY
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
ST. MICHAEL'S HOSPITAL - SOUTHEAST AISA
Sitting in the lobby outside the ER, was the entire 08th Team and Kiki. They were all worried about Terry
Sanders Jr. was was in the ER getting operated on, and they were all either very scared or very jumpy
and nervous. They all sat in silence for the first hour they were there, with some cring from Aina
and Kiki. Shiro, Karen, Eledore, and Michel let a few tears get by, but they didn't let them flow regularly.
Shiro was the first to break the slience. "I don't understand.....why did he do.." "To save you Shiro, that's
why." Shiro looked up at Karen. "True, but it's my job to make everyone come out alive! I mean, I remember
telling everyone that heroics weren't nessary! They would get you killed!" "He knew that Shiro, but he still
took that risk." "Yes, I know Kiki, but why?" "He was doing his job as a solder, and as a human."
"I can understand the human part, but screw Londo Bell right now! Sanders was a god man! He was a friend
to me, and I speak for all of us when I say he was a friend to all of us." They all nodded yes. Eledore
spoke up. "Do you think it had something to do with the Grim Reaper stuff?" Shiro got frustrated then. "Of
course not! Why would you think that?!?" "You know, as well as I that he took that shit seriously! He
mentioned to me once that that Reaper bullshit did get to him, and that's why he didn't want to be here,
because he didn't want us dead!" Shiro felt a whisper in his ear. "Dear, shouldn't we call Rose and ask her
to tell Terry's daughter what's going on?" "Have Rose tell Ami? Hmm.....It sounds risky, but I guess it would help
her. I'll make the call." Shrio went up to the pay phone, and dialed his number hoping Rose or Norris would be home.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
AMADA HOME
RING...RING...RING..RING..RI. "Hello, Amada resedence, Norris speaking." "Norris! I'm glad I reached you!"
"Shiro! Nice to hear from you! How's Aina?" "Great, but I need to talk to Rose. Is she there? If she's not
I'm grounding her for the next 5 years." "Haha, don't worry Shrio she's right here. I'll put her on." "Thanks Norris."
"Hello?" "Rose dear!" "Daddy! You're alive! How's mom? And Michel? And Karen? And Eledore? And Terry?"
"Mom's fine, Karen, and Eledore are good, Michel's great, and he got married too, as for Terry....."
"Oh my God, he's....." "No, but he's in ER, and we're expecting the worst about him." "Oh, no..."
"Rose, we need you to do something for us. We need you to go talk to Ami about her father, and his condition."
"Yeah Dad, I will do that right away! But can I say hi to Mom first?" "Sure, but after....." "I will Daddy."
Rose Amada heard he father call out her mother, and then....."Rose!" "Mommy! I miss you!" "I miss you too Rose,
and we will be coming home soon. But right now, we need you to tell Aim about what happened to her father."
"Ok, I'm on my way! I love you Mom!" "I love you too!" Rose hung up the phone, and left for Terry SAnders' house,
with Grandpa Norris driving.

SANDERS HOME
Rose walked up to the front door and rang the doorbell. Almost immedetly a girl answered the door. She was beautiful,
she had nice brown eyes, and brown hair, almost in the style of her father. She, like Rose had a nice body. But Ami
was a nervous wreck when she answered. "Ami? Are you OK?" "Rose?" Ami pulled Rose into a hug. "I'm s-so wo-orried about
my f-fath-father." "Ami, we should go inside and talk." Norris just sat in the car listening to some Dru Hill.
INSIDE
"Ami.." "What happened?" "Your father was hurt during battle, and is in ER right now. I don't know what happened, but
chances are he's not gonna..." "No!!!!!" Ami began cring on Rose's shoulder. "No! Not my dad! Nooo!" "It will
be ok Ami." "Rose, just stay the night, I need someone now." Rose agreed, because the older girl was a wreck. Rose slowly
went outside, and explained to Norris. "Ok Rose, but If you need me, I'll be at your house." Rose went back inside, but Ami wan't
in the living room. "Ami?" "In my room Rose!" Rose went up, knocked, and went inside. She ended up walking in on her friend.
Rose got a quick peek, then covered her eyes. Ami noticed. 'She just saw me like that....why am I not wanting to kill her?
Is it love? I could use some of that right now. Let's find out.' "Rose do you like me?" "Yes! Why?" "I mean LIKE me?"
"Oh, um...well you are beautiful, and I've never had thoughts like that before, about women I mean. But...I think I do
like you." "Ok, Well, here goes." Ami walked over to Rose and looked in her eyes. They slowly moved towards each other,
and kissed. For the moment, the two kindred souls had found love. Reality would bring them back into grief though, soon.
Real soon.

ST. MICHAEL'S HOSIPTAL - SOUTHEAST ASIA
"Shit, I'm going nuts! What's taking them so long??? I can't stand this!" "Eledore! Calm down!" "But Commander!" "Eledore, The
doctors are doing the best they can! You can't ask for more." Shiro began to let a few tears go by, and didn't bother to hide them.
Karen spoke up. "Commander?" Shiro looked up. "Yeah?" A smile crept on her face. "Remember the time Sanders wanted to quit,
and I kicked him in the balls?" Eledore, and Michel began smiling. Truth be told, it was a funny memory. "Teah, why?" Karen then
let out a few tears as well. "Well, he proved today that he really did have that courage. He saved us from the curse this time,
by doing what he did." Karen put her head on Eledore's shoulder and began cring heavily. Shiro just smiled. "He was a kind man Shrio,
you know that." "Yeah KIki, I know." "I only wish we can do more....." Michel spoke up this time. "My love, we've done all we could do.
All we can do now is wait." They all just sat in silence from then on.
1 HOUR AND 35 MINUTES LATER
A doctor came out of ER, and the 08th Team came out of silence. "Are you people the 08th MS Team?" "Yes we are." "Who is
Shiro Amada?" "Me." "Hi, I'm Dr.Sayla Mass." "Nice to meet you. Now, how's Sanders?" "I'm sorry, we did everything we could."
Aina, Kiki, and Karen began cring on their respective man's shoulders. Eledore, and Michel were just to stunned to react.
Shiro tried to keep it together. "Thank you." "I'm sorry, I truly am." Shiro just smiled at her.
Sayla began to walk away. "Damn him. Char, why did he do that when he knew he lost?" Sayla heard this. "Mr. Amada, do you mean Char is
the cause of this?" "Yes. Sanders beat him in a duel. Char took a mega cannon, and fired at Amuro Ray and myself. Sanders took the
blast, and you know the rest." Sayla nodded, and walked away. 'Casval, why did you do this? I will find out one day. Just don't die my brother.
And don''t kill Amuro, I beg of you!' Sayla walked back into ER. A thought came to Shiro's mind. "Hey Aina, someone should call Ami!"
Michel spoke up. "I'll do it." Michel walked over to the phones, and dialed the Sanders' number.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
SANDERS' HOME
"Wow." "You can say that again." "Ami, I love you." "I love you too Rose." To interupt this moment, the phone rang. "I'll get it. Damn phone."
Ami walked over and picked up the phone. "Hello?" "Hi Ami, it's Michel." "Uncle Michel? What's wrong...is it about my father?" "Yes."
"How is he?" "I'm sorry." "No...no..no..NO!" "Ami, we're taking it hard here too, it will be Ok!" "Thanks Uncle Michel." Ami hung up, and
began to cry in Rose's lap. Rose knew immedetly what happened, and began to cry herself. They cried like this until they were all cried out.
Earlier, Ami had turned on the radio while she was changing. Now, a song came on that summarized
everything.
'We were 5 steps, from eternity
We were 4 steps, 4 steps past love,
And 3 wishes, from touching the heavens above..
We were 5 steps, from eternity
We were 4 steps, 4 steps past love,
And 3 wishes, from touching the heavens above...'
In her grief, Ami had noticed these lyrics, and it reminded her of Terry Sanders Jr., and all the good times she spent with him.

"Hey, did you hear that song?" "Yeah Shiro." "Yes commander." "Yes dear." Eledore and Michel just gave nods.
"Did that remind you of Sanders? Because it reminded me." They all nodded yes. "He was a good man, He will be missed."
